Definitions

  • the invention relates to an expansion anchor for cement-free anchoring of bone implants, consisting of a hollow body which is open on one side and expandable with the aid of longitudinal slots, and an expansion body which can be driven into the hollow body, the hollow body carrying barb-like, circular toothings on its outer surface.
  • expansion anchors are known, for example, from CH-PS 662 501.
  • the expansion body consists of a pin which can be driven in in the direction of the longitudinal axis and when it is driven in, no torques are exerted on the anchor.
  • screws should be anchored with implant expansion anchors.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide an expansion anchor that resists unintentional rotations, for example when screwing in a screw.
  • This object is achieved in that the outer circumference of the hollow body is polygonal in cross-section at least over a partial length of the dowel.
  • the hole for receiving the new dowel is drilled out to a diameter that corresponds to the distance between two opposite sides, so that the edges of the polyline already penetrate into the bone substance.
  • the polygonal shape of the toothing of the hollow body of the dowel inserted into the bore then acts as a rotation lock against unintentional rotation of the dowel.
  • the vertebra With a large number of bones, bone density and bone hardness vary greatly, for example in the case of the vertebra, in which the vertebral arch consists of hard, dense, cortical bone substance and the vertebral body is made of relatively soft and "airy" cancellous material. In a manner known per se, these material differences can be taken into account in the new dowel in that the hollow body has a fine toothing near the closed end of the longitudinal slots, which is followed by coarse toothing towards the open end.
  • the polygon shape additionally causes the bending loads to be transmitted to the bone over a relatively wide area; moreover, this effect of the polygonal shape in the relatively soft cancellous bone tissue can be intensified if the teeth of the coarse toothing have become blunted into axially parallel surfaces.
  • the anchorage of the dowel in the cancellous material can be improved if the axial distance between the teeth of the coarse teeth is greater than their tooth depth.
  • the inner bore of the hollow body is cylindrical in the area of the fine toothing and tapered in the area of the coarse toothing.
  • the hollow body 1 of the expansion dowel according to FIG. 1 for example made of body-compatible plastic, usually made of polyethylene or a metal, has a head 3 enlarged in diameter compared to the core 2, which in addition to the hexagonal outer shape in this case has an internal hexagon 4 for receiving a corresponding one , not shown setting or impact instrument.
  • the hexagonal core 2 continues downwards in fine toothing 5.
  • a coarse toothing 6 adjoins the fine toothing 5 and extends to the free end of the dowel extends. Both the fine toothing 5 and the coarse toothing 6 are also polygonal in the circumferential direction, in the present case again as a hexagon.
  • FIG. 1 is made of body-compatible plastic, usually made of polyethylene or a metal, has a head 3 enlarged in diameter compared to the core 2, which in addition to the hexagonal outer shape in this case has an internal hexagon 4 for receiving a corresponding one , not shown setting or impact instrument.
  • the hexagonal core 2 continues downwards in fine toothing 5.
  • a coarse toothing 6 adjoins the
  • the teeth of the coarse teeth 6 are truncated at their tips to flat axially parallel surfaces 9; these surfaces effect a distribution of the pressures or forces resulting from bending stress over a relatively large area of the soft bone tissue 12, in which the coarse teeth 6 come to rest.
  • the expansion of the hollow body 1 is achieved by longitudinal slots 10 which extend from the free end to the head 3 and of which at least two are generally distributed over the circumference.
  • clamping screws are preferred for this purpose, which have a thread 16 near their head 15 (FIG. 4) over a certain length, to which a thread-free stem 14 connects.
  • the thread 16 is screwed into a thread 17 of the longitudinal bore 18 of the hollow body 11 in order to spread the hollow body 11, which, in contrast to the hollow body 1 of FIG. 1, only has no head with an enlarged diameter.
  • the longitudinal bore 18 is in the area of the thread 17 and in the adjoining part which bears the barb-like fine toothing 5 on the outside cylindrical, while in the area of the coarse toothing 6 it tapers towards the free end.
  • the application of the new expansion plug shown in FIG. 5 shows that the fine toothing 5 extends above all in the hard cortical tissue 13 of the vertebral arch, while the coarse toothing 6 extends into the soft cancellous tissue 12 inside the vertebral body 19.
  • the polygon shape of the cross section is not limited to that of a hexagon; it can also have any other number of edges in the same way.
